Adding a Peripheral Device to a System

    To adding a new peripheral device that is not hot-pluggable, you perform the following general steps:

  • Shut down the system

  • Connect the device to the system

  • Reboot the system

In some cases, you might have to add a third-party device driver to support the new device.

For information on hot-plugging devices, see Chapter 2, Dynamically Configuring Devices.
